Been there in '78. No not 1878 in case you were wondering. The ceilings of the large Entry Hall are literally covered in Dirks, Rifles, Muskets, Shields etc etc from centuries of collecting Regimental Artifacts.

Must be getting as scarce as the $100 note. (apparently collected in bulk by Crooks & Neer do wells as they are easier to handle). Read. Get shot of.



I did like the old 10/- note colour plus it had my old mate King Georgie on it. Colour reminds me of the outback colour of Australia.

This is spooky in some ways
